Travel agencies within Dnata’s portfolio will offer preferred travel packages featuring Minor Hotels for select destinations.

Additionally, the partnership will see integration with Dnata Travel Group’s destination management companies, Arabian Adventures and Destination Asia.

A corporate agreement with Minor Hotels will grant Dnata Travel Group’s corporate travel business and its clients access to direct rates across all Minor Hotel brands.

Minor Hotels chief commercial officer Ian Di Tullio said: “Through dnata, we have access to high-value channels and traveller segments, as we expand our portfolio and enter new markets.

“For dnata’s varied customer network, our hotels and resorts offer a world of choice, from luxury resort brand, Anantara Hotels & Resorts, to our boutique lodges, camps, and hotels in the Elewana Collection, and excellent value mid-range and upper-upscale options.”

Yalago, a dnata Travel Group brand, is also collaborating with Minor Hotels on a sustainable distribution agreement in the B2B environment, promising significant savings across the latter’s network for trade partners and travellers.

Last month, Minor Hotels partnered with The Cavaleros Group to manage a hotel in Johannesburg, South Africa.
